The evening was filled with so many meaningful moments and the sun was shining on our backs on a very sunny fall afternoon. We shared laughter, hugs, stories, and a few happy tears as we looked back on the journey that’s brought CMD to this point. Guests sipped, stacked [...]
Friends, CMD’s 20th Anniversary Party is almost here and the nostalgia has really set in! I’ve been looking through old photos and reminiscing about CMD in the early days. That first leap of faith — saying yes to a studio I wasn’t sure I could afford — taught me something I’ve carried with me ever since: little risks open big doors. Every milestone CMD has reached since then has been built on that same [...]
I had no roadmap, no investors, and no idea where this path would take me. What I did have was grit, curiosity, and an unstoppable urge to create. Two decades later, CMD has grown into a small-but-mighty brand with a team I love, a community I treasure, and designs that still light me up at the bench. [...]

When I was 25, I embarked on a 6 month backpacking trip that seriously changed my life. It was the catalyst that gave me the guts to start CMD. Here I am 20 years later, I’ve been hustling ever since to build and grow a sustainable company. It’s been thrilling, exhausting, defeating and empowering… all in one and [...]
There’s something so precious about the subtlety of the Spread the Love and Infinity Bracelets. I’m absolutely thrilled to add these new pieces to our permanent collection. They are both tiny symbols that have really big meaning and are very personal to me as well. I wear my necklace nearly everyday and can’t wait [...]
As we bid 2023 farewell, I’d like to take a beat to celebrate the highs, learn from the lows, and honor all the milestones we’ve reached in between. Read on for some of the most noteworthy CMD moments of the year! When I began this business just over 18 years ago, I had no idea it would blossom into what it is today. [...]
In honor of Giving Tuesday, I’m donating 10% of sales from orders placed today to NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness), an organization that’s near and dear to my heart. For those grieving loss, for those who have complicated, stressful or non-existent family relationships, for those who feel alone, for those who feel [...]
They say there's a black hole at the center of every galaxy, and inside that black hole is a whole other universe. When I think of Scorpio, I think of just that. Black holes, the shadows, nighttime, the ocean, death, passion, and transformation. Deep, [...]
I’ll never forget the first time I learned about Burning Man. It was 2001, I had just moved West and was working in an Oakland warehouse at a furniture design company. There were some people building these large sculptures for the event. When I asked what they were [...]
With most things, there is a defined beginning and end, completely packed with pages in between each figurative cover. There are also things that are infinite and never go away – and Love and Light are the first two concepts that come to mind when I think of Infinity and its perfectly beautiful associated symbol [...]
Miglia and I are sort of attached at the hip. Nine out of ten times you see me walking down the street, Miglia will be with me. I bring her everywhere – she comes with me to work, she runs errands with me, we eat our meals together, she goes to the beach with me…she’s with me all the [...]
